January 17, 201610 yr Breakfast this morning at Ally's Comfort Cafe. Julie and I shared a tiramisu pancake and I had a Monte Cristo sandwich. She had already devoured into her lamb gyro before I got a chance for a picture.
January 17, 201610 yr Birthday weekend sous vide fillet mignon with bacon (bacon wrapped was not to be) (Somehow, some bacon fat got on the lens ...) And for dessert, My Birthday, My rules!
January 17, 201610 yr Fried chicken and waffle with gravy and a side of candied bacon, with a cappuccino.
January 17, 201610 yr Homemade pork tacos. Very happy with the way the pork came out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
January 18, 201610 yr Agreed, nice looking taco, Nate. Could you please point us to the recipe for the slow-cooked carnitas?
January 18, 201610 yr Here's the recipe - http://www.recipetineats.com/pork-carnitas-mexican-slow-cooker-pulled-pork/. I followed it pretty much verbatim. The cook time, on high in my crock pot, was around 5hrs which seemed to track with the recommendations in the recipe and I can't think of anything that I'd really change. Even using a smaller pork shoulder (~4lbs) there is a ton of of meat for leftovers, not that I'm complaining. In the future there's a pork chilli that I'll be using this for, for sure. In case anyone is curious - the taco construction is homemade guacamole in the bottom, then the pork, then homemade pico de gallo topped with a little cheese on top wrapped in a soft corn tortilla.
January 18, 201610 yr Especially leftover brisket taco made by brisket fairy -- I think I had about 8.
January 18, 201610 yr Amazon delivered a 6 pound jug of crisco last week, so I used a bunch to demonstrate my wisdom in buying it. Fried chicken, garlic mashed potatoes, pork gravy (using ham dripping ice cubes saved from Christmas) and Thai chili Brussels sprouts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
